they deleted the scene between harry and petunia thoDragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Sat Oct 27, 2018 8:25 pm Yeah part 1. It does a good job at capturing the whole dark atmosphere of the first half of the book.
As for 5 it captures the empire of Umbridge and the DA thing perfectly, and that's satisfying for me.

Re: Hogwarts Mafia
plus seeing hermione own rita skeeter was so satisfying in the booksSloonei wrote: ↑Sat Oct 27, 2018 9:23 pmThe fourth movie eliminated too many plot elements and came off as just a compilation of monster battles with Voldemort as the final boss.Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:58 pm Movie 4 is probably the worst in a more global sense.
But 3 casually forgets to explain the main plot and 6 casually skips the main battle of the book.
Ugh these films.
Best ones are 5 and 7. They are the only ones I'd call really good adaptions.
Plus it's always bothered me to no end that they completely eliminated Ludo Bagman. Without him there's no reason for Harry to give his prize money to Fred and George, thus there's no explanation later as to why they're able to open and operate their shop. What, are we supposed to just believe that did it by magic?
It's been too long since I've seen any of the others to have specific gripes. I just remember being especially disappointed by Goblet of Fire because it was my favorite book.

Re: Hogwarts Mafia
the book made the point that voldemort was no more than a man in deathspeedchuck wrote: ↑Sat Oct 27, 2018 9:58 pm The movies really shined in some places, but having read the books first, the movies ended up subpar. Great aesthetic and a few good moments, perfect casting for preteen Harry Potter and for Snape, the feeling of the movies was perfect. There were a lot of things left out of movies that they needed, and the overall story was mutilated in some places. The final Harry vs Voldemort battle was awful, for one.
Decent movies if it weren't for the books though
and yet the movie decided to complete disregard that
shame

My comment was that we are not mafia partners because I like to discuss things with my mafia teammates, and I "spoiled" something for juliets (even though I PUT THE DAMN THING IN SPOILER TAGS), so we are not bad together in BTSC.
You don't have to believe that, of course, but I threw it out there anyway.

Yeah I don't get it.
Here you explain the Deathly Hallows mechanic. Which, since they're all locked behind secrets, the basic gist is "You get one if you kill the guys that have them or if you're the last vote on the guys that have one"
Here Owner says "Dark Arts" and not "Deathly Hallows". Her exact quote will be helpful in understanding my thought process so here:

I remember reading the stuff about it but not nearly picking up enough about it to understand it all.

Give DH a break and flag me for a bit.
Technically, what you said is some form of mechanical-talk or a retelling of information, in which some of it is free to us. But it doesn't necessarily solve us the game or anything.
It's potenitally the kind of post meant to look like a person is being useful, but in reality, they aren't truly really adding to the thread.
"The Dark Arts Stuff" - if you've got Dark Arts on the mind and someone says Deathly Hallows, you might confuse the two. Freudian Slippage.
"I remember reading the stuff about it but not nearly picking up enough...." - [Secrets] and "Keep what you kill" doesn't strike me as hard to retain.
IDK thinking out loud, the best indicator of an actual slip here is conflating "Dark Arts" with "Deathly Hallows" because she had "Dark Arts" on the mind.

A few games ago, we found a new scumtell. Scum players, in order to look productive, throw out some reads on other players. Not everyone, but also nobody specific. Nothing substantial, and little to follow up on. Just some light poking at some of the names in the thread, in a way that looks like it's generating content.
Something similar to that. I haven't seen it defined that well, but we've caught scum with it.
The smattering of player reads without substance was coined as 'player salad' by someone.

um, actually voldemort only wanted the wand which had surfaced under various names as it's own legend. he didn't know nor care about the hallowsBullzeye wrote: ↑Mon Oct 29, 2018 4:29 pmThis strikes me as odd because the Hallows themselves aren't evil. They're associated with Death, and trying to cheat Death in various ways. Good people don't want to die either. The Resurrection Stone was also just supposed to bring back people's loved ones, nothing remotely bad about that. We have seven books worth of the Invisibility Cloak being used for good, and the Elder Wand just obeys power. Those two could be used for evil or for good, depending on who had them. Voldemort wanted them as weapons because he was evil, not because they were.Owner of a Lonely Heart wrote: ↑Mon Oct 29, 2018 11:29 am
I think I associate Dark Arts with Deathly Hallows as they are relatively both dark things. Or in my mind, both relate to the one who isn't to be named. The Deathly Hallows wouldn't exist without the dark arts I think.
It's like when I say scum. When I think of scum, I think both mafia and 3p (third party) are scum. Some sites like NF have taught me sometimes indies aren't scum.

There's been a lot about Jay posted over the evening/night and after reading it all I'm less inclined to vote for him today. He mentions a "breakdown" and I don't know if that is true but when I couple it with the fact he said supatown Jay is dead it puts me off voting for him. I know from discord how busy he is and how he is immersed in his studies and barely comes up for air. Maybe these things are why he does not appear to be the civ Jay I know. I'm still not wild about his logic for voting Quin but willing to overlook that at this point in the game in the hopes we have a town Jay - maybe not supatown, but at least town.
Glorf I think mentioned Quin as being off (a little disagreeable or something like that) but that has recently been indicative of his town game. Also I think his sense of humor can sometimes be misconstrued (sp?). Someone described his town behavior perfectly in a past game and I'll try and find it.
I don't know at this point who I'll be voting for. I have some analysis to do.

I attacked Quin, because attacking Quin is a nice way to make things happen early in a thread. Quin is responsive, and it is something likely to become A Thing in general thread dialogue -- and from that, a Mafia game may be born. Your response to that is one that bugs me, because your defense of Quin was as empty as my attack. If Quin's accusation really was that of a "slip", then it was quite silly -- you called it "natural", and I find that dubious.
I did see it yes, though I admit that I had previously thought it came later in the phase. It was early in the EST morning, so it wasn't as close to the EOD region as I'd thought (when the general climate of suspicion was shifting or had shifted to the TH and Owner split). So that's a bit better than the alternative, as in backing away from suspicion when the climate wasn't ideal for its being pushed. You must understand though that in that post your assessment of me was still negative. I didn't appear to be the civ Jay you know. You weren't wild about my logic. My transgressions had to be overlooked to give me a break. You didn't call for my destruction, but that's not a positive assessment of my play in this game.
Also note that I have highlighted in blue some of the components of your post here. There's a tone of assertiveness and even combativeness that I am simply not used to seeing in juliets posts. I won't pretend that these are hyper-suspicious things, but you are a very difficult player to read. If you're a mafioso, then I believe it's little things like this that will get you caught. You're too careful for big mistakes. So scrutiny is extremely important in your case.
My perspective that you were contributing to the negative climate surrounding me stems from your approach to my treatment of Quin, beyond that discussed in this post. example / example

Re: Hogwarts Mafia - Day 2
As far as I was aware the laws of the universe didn't allow for a scum juliets. I'll make time to read up on her today.

Re: Hogwarts Mafia - Night 1
My impression was that whether you believed in an accusation or not, there was always some reasoning behind it on Day 1. Wanna throw me a couple of games to show me otherwise?JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Oct 31, 2018 7:15 pmNo, they really don't. People may think so, but I'm always full of shit.

luckily kyle has just now arrived to verify this so i don't have toJaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Oct 31, 2018 7:21 pmOh there is a reason. I don't merely say "Quin is bad!".

X might absolutely be stupid as hell, but I don't care about that. It provides something that demands a specific response beyond "No, JJJ, I am not bad!". I don't have time right now to go on an archaeological dig through my old games, but I can think of one example that you could look for on your own if you like -- Fiddler on the Roof, when I completely made up a "tell" that revealed Kyle as a mafioso just so it'd be something to talk about.

Re: Hogwarts Mafia - Day 2
Anyway, on juliets:
Tonally, I don't see an alignment. Her politeness is making it hard to tell. One observation I have very little opinion on but I'll post nonetheless:

juliets made two "what's going on?" posts on Day 1. The second kind of contradicts the first since I'd expect she go through at least the effort to figure out if things can happen on Day 1 and realise that there isn't anything "tangible" out there at this point.juliets wrote: ↑Tue Oct 30, 2018 3:46 pmI'd like to see what was behind her "I have my reasons" about DH just in case it's something tangible that happened in this game that I overlooked.speedchuck wrote: ↑Tue Oct 30, 2018 3:41 pm Owner's suspicion of DH reads ingenuine
Her defense of the Deathly Hallows/Dark Arts thing wasn't even needed, but she overexplained it in a way that looked nervous
Are there any other facets to the case there?

Re: Hogwarts Mafia - Day 2
in simple terms the possibility that juliets is feigning ignorance about the setup is not 0.
